Final fantasy 4. I have so much to say and so many feelings attached to it. I will do my best to keep it brief. My anticipation for this game was off the charts in 1991. I was 9 years old and I pored over the Nintendo power issue that featured the then known as Final Fantasy II before release. I mad...

I remember going to a Gamestop to purchase Final Fantasy III for the Nintendo DS in late 2006. Astonishingly, at the peak of the Wii craze, they had just received a shipment of consoles.

After binge-listening to many C&R and Sound of Play p...
